- "That's a command ship. Move to intercept!"
"But sir, Admiral Thrawn ordered us to maintain our position."
"Move to intercept! I will not be denied the glory of this kill!" - ―Kassius Konstantine and the officer
An Imperial officer served aboard Kassius Konstantine's Interdictor during the Battle of Atollon. During the battle, the Interdictor-class heavy cruiser's commanding officer, Admiral Kassius Konstantine, ordered the officer to move the Star Destroyer to intercept a rebel command ship, the Quasar Fire-class cruiser-carrier Phoenix Nest. Although the officer reminded Konstantine that their superior, Grand Admiral Thrawn, had ordered them to maintain their position, Konstantine overruled his subordinate, citing that[2] he[3] would not be denied the glory of the kill. The officer later informed Konstantine that the enemy vessel had changed course. Konstantine ordered them to take evasive action, but in moments the Interdictor had been destroyed by the ramming rebel ship.[2]
